It is composed of the following ingredients, and

i To one pintot' linseed-oil add one pint of spirits of turpentine and two ounces of laudauum. Put in an open vessel in the open air, theuadd two ounces of oil of vitriol, and stir until cool, when it is ready for bottling and use. a

This compound is intended for the cure of the fol.- lowing diseases:

. Sore throat, diphtheria, swelled neck, rheumatism, neuralgia, piles, sore nipples, a-gue in the breast, burns and wounds, chapped hands, sore lips, salt rheum, warts, corns, and all lameness and eruptive bruises and sores that man and beast is heir to. i

For diphtheria, swab the throat as often as necessary, v a and take from four to ten drops, according to the age I of the patient, every six hours.

' As an external remedy for horses and cattle:

For all deep or running sores, like thistleto, pollevil, pipe, formed on the neck by the collar, first inject a solution of saleratus-water', then inject the medicine freely-three times a day.
